the cowardice that we are talking about

No wonder the fulani people see you yorubas as cowards that they can rape anytime at will and get away with it

Fajuyi wouldn't die if he wanted to save himself

Danjuma gave him a chance

TimiofEde:


This is the lamba our hateful yoruba moslem parents told us for decades but that's far from the truth.

We just love to ass lick our fulani masters and insult our Igbo superiors.

Ironsi was in the capital of western Nigeria under the direct protection of Fajuyi.


He stood his ground against the mutinous northern officers not because he cared about that buffoon Ironsi but because he was the military governor of the then Western region and wanted to let the world know he had no hand in Ironsi being killed.

That's honour for you something the 0hus do not understand.

GeneralPula:


In a society with good sportsmanship, what Fajuyi did was very good & commendable! But then, I once asked myself... If tables were turned, would Ironsi have done the same?

T9ksy:



Hell NO!!!

In fact, Ibos have always been anti- yoruba right from the time of the Amalgamation of the North and Southern Nigeria. However, they were the first to start shouting from the mountain tops about how yorubas betrayed them even when everyone knows that, they were the ones always betraying yorubas...

They are quick to call us tribalists simply because we didn't allow their slimy leader to laud it over us in our region. Even with the benefit of hindsight of what transpired in the 1st republic where they, as a result of their servitude to the fulanis, one of their kind was made Federal Minister for education, ibos VCed all the universities in our region! They still call us tribalists to this day.

GeneralPula:

Right..

Back then, if 100 students got admission into UI, 85 would be Igbos. The rest Nigerians would share the remaining 15. This was what made Akintola voiced out then..

There was a time when;
Chief of Army Staff was from SE
Chief of Naval Staff was from SE
IG of Police was from SE
Chief of Defence staff was fron SE
Internal Affairs Minister SE
External Affairs Minister SE
Education Minister South SE
Many other key ministries to SE
Parliament President SE
Unilag VC from SE
University of Ibadan VC from SE

Igbos introduced nepotism into Nigeria. I always laugh when I see them criticizing Buhari!

TimiofEde:
In 1966 a proud yoruba son in the person of Francis Adekunle Fajuyi who was governor of western region was murdered in cold blood along side his principal Gen. Johnson Thomas Umunnakwe Aguiyi-Ironsi who was the head of state at the time.

This brazen murder and affront to the western region was carried out by the fulani junta without regards for the yoruba people, they brazenly murdered a high ranking yoruba son on yoruba soil and instead of we the yorubas to take action and do something about the disrespect to us as a people, we instead colluded with the fulanis out of fear to spin the narrative that Fajuyi sacrificed himself for Ironsi as if it changes the fact that our son was murdered on our soil without regards for us as a people.

We even helped the fulanis to tag the coup an Igbo coup and threw our weight behind our fulani overlords.

This lie of Fajuyi willingly sacrificing himself has gone on for too long and should be addressed because when a lie is allowed to fester for so long it begins to look like the truth.

Are we Yorubas truly cowards and scared of fulanis? Why didn't we retaliate after the fulanis murdered our illustrious son?

I'd like the good members of this forum to throw more light on this topic.

They will always be betrayers. The OP is Igbo faking Yoruba identity to twist history in favour of Igbos. Awolowo once looked forward to Azikiwe for cooperation and they both agreed to meet at a particular Asaba at a particular time. While Awolowo got to the place as agreed, Azikiwe decided to keep Awolowo waiting while going ahead to form a pact with the North even though the North eventually made him irrelevant.

Now, they want to discredit Fajuyi who was loyal to their own son even to the point of death.

So what lesson did your so called story taught us now?
Misplaced priority

yommen:


Ironsi ran to him and he gave him the necessary protection. He wouldn't allow the northern soldiers kill ironsi untill he himself was killed. A Yoruba man gave up his life for an Ibo man. That's loyalty. Now you are trying to twist the story. You are such an ingrate you know!!!

When I am discussing politics with elderly Yorubas in my office, I would normally speak in favour of Igbos/Peter Obi. My elderly colleagues would often exclaim 'Igbo' showing disgust. It is on Nairaland I later got to understand the reasons why my elderly colleagues don't approve of Ibos. They are not ones to be relied upon at all.

Why don't you write in ede yoruba and stop embarrassing yourself with cut and join grammar while trying to punch above your weight.

Well, the lesson my story will teach you is that we the yoruba moslems are effeminate cowards and we should hide our face in shame.
